It is so nice to see yet more new subscribers again this month. I am glad to see our group is growing by the day.
Well, I don't know just how many of you are subscribed to The Galastro Times by Philip Sedgwick, but I have been enjoying his ezine for quite awhile now. Today's issue was quite interesting and I am going to quote a couple paragraphs to see how many of you can relate:
I offer you a quote from Galactic Times ezine, which I found very interesting and informative due to the "chaos" that has been going around from most I have spoken to . . . can you relate?
[quote] Perhaps the more interesting surprise given by the astronomers today is the naming of Chaos. In conversations with many folks of late - not all - but many, the phrase was "what in tarnation is going on?" The apparent symbol derived today suggests we just had not yet been able to define the chaos. It certainly is chaotic out there. Even for those blessed with extreme fortune at present, that too, is chaotic. The detailed demands run high. Priorities shift in a blink of an eye. Now we have a clear sighting of chaos. Once defined, resolving action can follow.
Chaos takes 312.79 years to revolve about the Sun. It comes closest to the Sun at 15 Cancer 54, very near the powerful healing star, Sirius. Jupiter passed over the perihelion of Chaos in the first week of March (also measured heliocentrically). The North Node of Chaos is 20 Taurus even - no small change goes with it. Chaos was at 29Taurus38 on March 1st, going direct. On April 1st, Chaos passes 0 Gemini 03. So what does all this Chaos mean?
The Taurus/Cancer combo of Chaos' orbit suggest the need to create absolute security. Having significant contacts (Jupiter crossing the perihelion of Chaos) while the Director of Homeland Security of the United States asked for a huge, blank check, and by the way, how I'm going to spend it is a secret, the issue of all kinds of security prevails. Can you have enough food in the pantry/freezer? What does it take to feel fiscally secure? Given this newly named body recently moved into Gemini, it would be natural to up all antes. The bar of needed accumulation rises to accommodate the uncertainty in the air.
For each person, part of the chaos comes in the forming of securing a foundation that can induce peacefulness. Peacefulness leads to restfulness. Gemini insists upon clear documentation. This suggests the need to improve budget documentation, redefine goals in an expanding Universe (and hopefully with expanding Universal Understanding) and discuss with all relevant parties the expectations of participation in whatever group bond they hold. Knowing what a person is to do and when, reduces chaotic misunderstanding. By the way, Chaos still connects with the Pleiades, the Weeping Sisters, but now from Gemini. The message here is clear as well. Get over what recently blew up in your face. Fix it. Go on. Forget about it. [unquote]

INTERCEPTED SIGNS ~ Continued
Marianne E. PaytonINTERPRETING THE INTERCEPTIONS
"THE POLARITIES"
The VIRGO - PISCES Interception
NORMAL BEHAVIOR PATTERN
Just as Virgo rules the physiological digestive processes it also deals with MENTAL digestion. It allows you to discriminate between valuable information and superficial nonsense, to separate, digest, and then eliminate waste material while organizing and retaining what is meaningful to your life.
In the house with Virgo on the cusp you analyze, discriminate, and eliminate non-essentials. You learn to use knowledge at a practical and productive way. You learn to objectively criticize, ask questions, and continually adjust and perfect your life in this area. In Virgo you are looking for the BEST way to use your potentials in order to better define your life purpose.
Pisces, however, is your polarity. It is not concerned with details but looks at the overall significance of an experience or idea. It is concerned with universal ideals rather than concrete data.
Virgo is analysis and perfection.
Pisces is acceptance and faith.
The Pisces - Virgo polarity allows you to continually perfect your life as well as accept your imperfections.
INTERCEPTED BEHAVIOR PATTERN
In the house with the Virgo intercept you over-criticize, over-analyze, and over-classify to the point you lose the overall significance of the experiences of those house matters. You take things apart and can't put them back together in these house matters. Rather than perfecting, you are destroying the meaning of the experiences you gain in these house matters.
In the house where Pisces is intercepted you have the abstract vision of the whole but lack the practicality or technicality needed to build something real from your dream in the matters of this house.
Leo occupies the cusp of the house where Virgo is intercepted. So others see you as confident, reliable, proud, generous and fixed in these house matters. Inside, however, you question, criticize your performance and try to perfect what you do. Yet you lack a clear vision (Pisces) of what you could really do, and you lack the Piscean faith to make the adjustments you know are needed . . . and you lack the faith to accept what happens along the way not seeing where it is leading you in these house matters.
People may not understand the questions you ask in these house matters so you have to look within for the answers. You will either become excessively critical in these matters . . . even demanding . . . OR you will be afraid to outwardly criticize the things you know need changing. You take things apart in these house matters (mentally) and can't get them back together.
Pisces is the other interception. In this house you lack the balance of Virgo living too much in a world of dreams with no real substance. Your faith in the unknown may be misplaced as you lack discrimination . . . you give too much of time, service, money, etc., in these house matters. You may accept personal inadequacies here without trying to perfect them. You can become obsessed with unrealistic fears escaping or neglecting the responsibilities in this area of life. Or, you hang on to things of little value.
Aquarius is on the cusp of the house where Pisces is intercepted. Others see you as having unique ideas concerning these house matters. They think you are progressive and humanitarian in these house matters. Yet, you may lack the required discrimination and practicality to fulfill your humanitarian dreams.
An especially important lesson of this interception is that there is a point in every person's life where you must stop giving and let others take responsibility for their own lives. You must also learn to develop the faith to move ahead into the unknown with little assistance from the outside world. Others will not understand what you aspire to in these house matters. You have trouble defining your goals here in this area of life, so others find it hard to encourage you since they really don't know what you aspire to.
Now that we have covered the interceptions with their polarities, I am sure many are wondering about those duplicated signs. This will be covered in the next issue, so stay tuned.

http://www.astro8.virtualempire.com/mail%20to:Mpayton@cfl.rr.com?Subject=SPOTLIGHTOver the years I have been discovering something about human beings. We never ask ourselves "what is my soul worth?". As many of you might know by now, I am a psychic-medium and have been for over twenty years. I recently had a psychiatrist, with his patient, to ask me her question for I was the "real deal" is how he put it. I realized you don't last in this business this long unless you are helping others by what I call a gift from God. This is how I look at it, my mission, also my profession. Many people have different gifts from God that I do not have and would love to have and some people use their gift as their profession also.
With every profession and gift, there is a down side, and it usually is with dealing with other human beings who are also here for a purpose ... we all are! I had an appointment to give a woman a reading. When she called she seemed very anxious. She gave me the name of a former client whom I haven't seen in years who was coming to see me this coming Saturday morning. She wanted her reading before, during the week, and we set up a day and time. In fact, beings she sounded so anxious I set her time for the very next day. She later called me back and said she was having trouble because her mortgage payment was not received and she needed to check with the bank, so she would make her appointment time with her friend on Saturday. I said "fine" and changed the date to include both of them. Her friend called me and changed her date to Saturday a week away. I asked her about them coming together and her reply was "she can come alone she was going to in the first place".
To make sure everything was set properly in my appointment book, I called the woman with the mortgage problems to tell her that her friend changed her date to the Saturday a week away and to give me a call if she was still going to show up this Saturday or change her appointment date to be with her friend the following Saturday. I put it on her answering machine. I noticed also on her answering machine, she ended her outgoing message "May God Bless You".
At that time I didn't feel any truth in those words and I didn't know why. Usually those words would make me feel good!!! She never returned my call to verify this Saturday's appointment. There it was ... that feeling I got, that opposite feeling I got when I heard "May God Bless You" on her answering machine.
Answering machines can stop working properly, so I gave her the benefit of the doubt. I made my office ready to give her a reading, I made sure I was ready and dressed properly instead of being in my robe on a Saturday morning, but that nagging feeling that she was not going to show up, or call, kept haunting me. I thought about the woman who called me on Friday and asked me if she could have that time slot for that was the only time she could make it because she had to rush off to work afterwards. I had to politely turn her down and tell her that 11a.m. time slot had been taken because I did not get a call to tell me otherwise.
For the first time I did something I have never done before. I called her answering machine again and at the end of her outgoing message when she said "May God Bless You" I said at the tone for me to speak, "I am very sad that you did not call to tell me that you were not coming for your appointment. I don't think God would be very happy with you right now for not being polite to one of his souls whom he gave a gift to use as my profession. I could have filled your time slot and helped someone else".
What is our soul worth???
I asked myself that question and learned from it just last year. We never think to ask that question. My experience compelled me to. I say nothing is by coincidence. We just don't always read the signs.
I went to the store to get postage stamps. I asked for one book t the grocery store. It was around Christmas time and I wondered if one book would be enough to send out my Christmas cards which can be a costly endeavor in itself. When I got home I noticed that I had two books! Two books were stuck together. At first I thought "Wow, I will have enough now!!!" I separated the two books and then I thought "this is the same as stealing". "What is your soul worth Florence? Is it worth just over $6?" I put on my coat and took the other book back to the store and asked for the manager and told her what had happened. She invited me to go back to the bakery and pick out a free pie for my honesty. I said "how about a donut?" .... and we both laughed.
This is something I have noticed year after year, over and over again, but said nothing and did nothing about it. Many times, unfortunately, when you hear "May God Bless You" it can be a cover-up for someone who is not honest ..... isn't that a shame it is too easy to say and then we hurt someone?
What Is Your Soul Worth? ...... Several years ago I heard a voice by my ear say "Go teach". I thought "teach what?" and I heard "Teach that we cannot demean or make misery for another one of God's souls. This will cover ALL of God's ten laws. God is not angry, God is sad. Cannot DEMEAN or MAKE MISERY FOR does cover all of God's ten laws. When making a decision regarding someone else, or an action, ask yourself "What Is My Soul Worth?"
